Suggestive of a game of peekaboo, our cover is actually a cannon's-eye view of Dr. Edwin A. Olson, Whitworth science professor, looking into the business end of a 16-inch gun section now being used in a campus research project. In the article beginning on page two, Olson describes his radiocarbon dating research project that uses the 6-foot-Iong gun section as a radiation shield for a measuring instrument. Weighing seven tons, the gun section once rode the waves aboard the U.S.S. Wisconsin until it was dismantled after World War II. The gun barrel now serves a more peaceful purpose as an important element in a three-year Whitworth research project sponsored by the National Science Foundation. In his third year at Whitworth, Olson came to the college from the Lamont Geological Observatory of Columbia University where he recently received the doctor of philosophy degree. After receiving his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Pittsburgh, Olson spent four years with the DuPont Chemical Company before assuming the professor's role at Northwestern College, Minneapolis. Last summer Dr. Olson attended the Fifth International Conference on Radiocarbon Dating at Cambridge University, England, where he read a paper-on the results of his Columbia research.

Yet not always Edwin Olson has our earth presented the same countenance. Its many faces change not only from place to place but from time to time. It is only within the last 60 years that we have learned just how long a time the changes require. The key to our knowledge is radioactivity, and TIME with it many questions about the geological and pre- historic past become answerable. At the present time, equipment for the measurement TREE RINGS of time by radioactivity is nearing completion at Whit- worth College. The method involves the chemical element carbon, the basis of all living things. In practice, AND only one of the three types of carbon is measured - the radioactive isotope carbon-14 comprising but one tril- lionth of the carbon atoms in living organisms. So minute is the amount of this isotope of carbon that it TALKING was unknown in nature before 1947.

Dr. Mark L. Koehler took office as Whitworth's executive vice president- in September 1962. He holds bachelor's degrees from Whitworth and San Francisco Theological Seminary where he is a member of the board of trustees. He earned the master of theology' degree from Princeton Theological Seminary and was awarded the honorary doctor of divinity degree from Dubuque University while he was head of the Whitworth religion department. For thirteen years prior to his most recent Whitworth appointment:, Koehler was senior minister of the 3000-member First Presbyterian church of Yakima, Washington. He is a past moderator of the Synod of Washington-Alaska and was recently named to the Committee of One Hundred of the General As- sembly of the United Presbyterian Church U.S.A.

The professors don't just stop at learning student Karen Kuest our names, but they endeavor to learn more about us at the First Presbyterian ~hurch so that they can take a sincere interest in our lives and of Wenatchee, Washington futures. Teachers are available for private conferences and are always willing to listen to any problem and to help us seek the best and most satisfying solution. On special occasions, the faculty open their homes for student visitations. Meeting our English or sociology teacher in a home environment always helps to better our classroom relationship and allows us to meet and have discussions in a more relaxed and informal atmosphere. A dedicated faculty and a devoted student body work together to make the fellowship with God at Whitworth College a deep religious experience. Each faculty member has a rich Christian background, and many of them serve as ministers or Sunday school instructors in Spo- kane churches.

With senior Ed Hagen scoring 73 points in three games and earning honors as the outstanding player of the tournament, Whitworth placed second in the season-ending Evergreen conference tourney play at the University of Puget Sound field house February 21-23. After the Pirates had edged Central 76-74 on Gary McGlocklin's driving lay-in in the final seconds of the first game, the Bucs dropped league champion Pacific Lutheran university 78-70 the following night to gain a berth in the finals for the second straight year. Hagen scored a personal career high of 42 points against the Lutes and tied a field house scoring record. Despite 21 and 20 point efforts by Hagen and Me- Glocklin, respectively, Western Washington won its third of the season over the Pirates 73-64 in the finals to gain the top tourney spot.
